Trudeau Promotes Wide Open Liberal Party, No More Membership Privileges

The proposal, adopted on Sunday by the party’s national board during a meeting with the prime minister in Halifax, would scrap the long-held principle that only dues-paying, card-carrying members are entitled to take part in party activities.
